Flashback 4:  You know the drill boys and girls, let's take a quick look at yesterday's answers.

Many of you getting 4/4 today. Let's take a quick look at question 3 - those ratios can be tricky. I would always recommend setting these questions out using the following method.

green : blue

   3     :   2

   15   :   ?

By setting out like this, we can quickly see what we have multiplied by to get from 3 - 15 ( 3 x 5 = 15). Therefore, we also need to multiply the 2 by 5, so the answer is of course 10.

Just check with question 4 that you didn't forget to include the decimal point.

Now let's take a look at today's questions.

Don't get caught out by Q3 - fraction not ratio.
